The INNOPROM exhibition area in Riyadh will amount to 6,000 square meters. On the Saudi side, the event will be attended by a number of industrial companies, as well as government authorities and agencies for investment and industry: the Ministry of Investment, the Ministry of Industry and Mineral Resources, Invest Saudi, Saudi Made, MODON and others.

The Russian part will be represented by about 140 companies. Among the largest participants are Rosatom, Roscosmos, CRPT, National Project Construction, Rostec, Transneft, Callisto Vision, Katyusha Print, Arnest YunIrus, Generium. In addition, the Russian Export Center will organize a collective exhibition under the brand "Made in Russia", where advanced solutions for industrial and digital transformation will be shown. A number of Russian regions will also demonstrate their developments: Moscow, St. Petersburg, Krasnodar Territory, Chelyabinsk Region, Samara Region, Orenburg Region, Belgorod Region, Rostov Region, and the Republic of Tatarstan.

Russian companies will show a wide range of industrial solutions relevant, among other things, for the implementation of the Saudi national development program Vision 2030. For example, the field of unmanned aerial vehicles will be represented by modern drones with extensive applications in agriculture, mining, oil and gas industry, search and rescue operations. A unique development for the domestic and foreign markets of the Applied Robotics group of companies, an educational drone with artificial intelligence, deserves special attention. The development is designed to teach school students, university and college students programming, the basics of machine vision and autonomous navigation. The complex includes a drone constructor with an intelligent vision module and a software simulator that allows you to work out drone control algorithms in a virtual environment before switching to working with a real device.

In the field of healthcare, Eidos LLC will present a unique virtual simulator for ultrasound diagnostics. The program includes more than 100 clinical scenarios validated by leading sonography specialists, which allows practicing physicians and future physicians to practice their skills in conditions as close to reality as possible. In turn, the second exhibit, the Leonardo adult patient simulator, will allow students to fully immerse themselves in the learning process and improve their personal and team skills in emergency situations.

Russian Helicopters Holding Company will demonstrate the Mi-171A3 helicopter, designed specifically to operate in harsh marine conditions. The helicopter meets all safety requirements for flights over water surfaces and is designed for servicing drilling platforms, transporting cargo to sea vessels and icebreakers. One of the central objects of the exhibition will be the stand of the Russian Fair Sign labeling system, dedicated to the digital traceability of goods in real time. The exhibition will show how the control of the movement of products along the supply chain is built — from production to sale — and what advantages this gives to the state, business and consumers. Visitors will be able to test the solution in practice: scan the labeling code in the Honest SIGN application and see key information about the product and its origin.

Special attention should be paid to the developments of domestic companies that are already cooperating with the countries of the Middle East, successfully introducing their technological innovations in the region. Among them is Callisto Vision, which will show equipment for marking aluminum caps, previously supplied to one of the enterprises in Saudi Arabia. In addition, the world leader in the development of AI-based video analytics solutions, the Russian company NtechLab, will demonstrate facial recognition technology that has been successfully implemented in India, Egypt, Saudi Arabia, Argentina, Qatar and the CIS countries.

The developments that will be presented at the exhibition will not only be able to interest Middle Eastern businesses, but will also become the next stage of the strategy to achieve Russia's technological leadership.

In addition, INNOPROM in Riyadh will host a rich business program that will combine more than 10 events in the formats of panel discussions and B2B sessions, including the main plenary session "Investing in the Future: Innovation and Industrial Cooperation", which will be held on February 9 and attended by the Minister of Investment of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Khalid Bin Abdulaziz Al-Fahih, Minister of Industry and Mineral Resources of the Kingdom of Saudi Arabia Bandar bin Ibrahim Al-Khureif, Minister of Industry and Trade of the Russian Federation Anton Alikhanov, heads of large industrial companies and investment agencies.
